"Celtic Pride" - Splinterz25 - 10-29-2019

Hello once again everyone here's my latest piece

"Celtic Pride"  It's Teak with a hand cut Mahogany inlay turned, then a hand carved Celtic Knot rim (Both Sides) and burned inside edges for shading. The finish is Tru-Oil and this piece finished just under 12" diameter x 1 3/4" deep.

That is an exceptional piece.
Can you tell us about carving the celtic knot ?

Thank you Wood-chips I think it would be easier to show some photos while carving first and if you still have questions I'll gladly answer them.
But first the knot was hand drawn by me then carve by hand using these knifes  https://www.amazon.com/Flexcut-Carving-Starter-Ergonomic-KN500/dp/B003Z7XNUO/ref=sr_1_6?crid=1COIQQGNKVP9L&keywords=flexcut+wood+carving+set&qid=1572441506&sprefix=flex+cut%2Caps%2C167&sr=8-6

The harp inlay was done by hand no CNC I used a Dremel w/ a cutter and a base to cut the inlay to a pencil line. Here are a few shots while carving.
